How to hanlde fcm push notification when app is killed, without using WakefulBroadcastReceiver as its decprecated in 26.1.0?

Question

I want to call some service from my application when application receives a notification when the application is either in the background or is killed.

Earlier, I was using a WakefulBroadcastReceiver for handling such notifications, but it is deprecated now. Can someone please help with it?

Thanks in advance.Cheers

Use JobScheduler

As of Android O, background check restrictions make this class no longer generally useful. (It is generally not safe to start a service from the receipt of a broadcast, because you don't have any guarantees that your app is in the foreground at this point and thus allowed to do so.) Instead, developers should use android.app.job.JobScheduler to schedule a job, and this does not require that the app hold a wake lock while doing so (the system will take care of holding a wake lock for the job).

just create a service extend FirebaseMessagingService and override onMessageReceived

class MyFirebaseMessagingService : FirebaseMessagingService() {
  override fun onMessageReceived(remoteMessage: RemoteMessage?) {
    Log.d(TAG, "From: ${remoteMessage?.from}")
  }
}

add service to your manifest

<service android:name=".MyFirebaseMessagingService">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="com.google.firebase.MESSAGING_EVENT" />
    </intent-filter>
</service>

Thanks for your answer @vahung3990.I already implemented this.But no help. – Yogesh Katkar Jan 07 '19 at 10:29
This won't work because onMessageReceived is only called when app is in background. – Singed Jan 27 '20 at 15:58

Instead of WakefulBroadcastReceiver you should extend regular BroadcastReceiver.

Then, in onReceive you can enqueue work using JobIntentService
